I imagine that on November 1, your thought processes was something like this:

Whiskerino. Today is the day I've got to commit to this. Sure it's fun and all but you know, it's also a bit of a time and soul commitment. I just don't know if I'm up for it again. OH SHIT!!!! WAIT!!! I just remembered. AWESOME! On December 8, we have that event where there will be a board with a santa painted on it with the head cut out. How totally sweet would it be if I, with my beard, got in there and got a photo!?? I would look like Santa, only it would be MY face!!!! Hell yes. I'm in. Whiskerino 2009, here I come.
